🏨 Vic Modern Hotel Network Topology
This project was developed as part of the Networking and Infrastructure Track using Cisco Packet Tracer.
🚀 Project Overview
A complete Layer 2 and Layer 3 network infrastructure design for Vic Modern Hotel consisting of three interconnected floors. The network is segmented using VLANs to separate departments, improve security, reduce broadcast traffic, and simplify network management.
The design includes Router-on-a-Stick implementation, VLAN segmentation, trunking, static routing, wireless connectivity, and secure device management.
